Abstract | Purpose: Individuals with amblyopia experience central vision deficits, including loss of visual acuity, binocular vision, and stereopsis. In this study, we examine the differences in peripheral binocular imbalance in children with anisometropic amblyopia, strabismic amblyopia, and typical binocular vision to determine if there are systematic patterns of deficits across the visual field. Methods: This prospective cohort study recruited 12 participants with anisometropic amblyopia, 10 with strabismic amblyopia, and 10 typically sighted controls (age range, 5-18 years). Binocular imbalance was tested at 0°, 4°, and 8° eccentricities (4 angular locations each) using band-pass filtered Auckland optotypes (5 cycles per optotype) dichoptically presented with differing contrast to each eye. The interocular contrast ratio was adjusted until the participant reported each optotype with equal frequency. Results: Participants with anisometropic and strabismic amblyopia had a more balanced contrast ratio, or decreased binocular imbalance, at 4° and 8° eccentricities as compared with central vision. Participants with strabismic amblyopia had significantly more binocular imbalance in the periphery as compared with individuals with anisometropic amblyopia or controls. A linear mixed effects model showed a main effect for strabismic amblyopia and eccentricity on binocular imbalance across the visual field. Conclusions: There is evidence of decreased binocularity deficits, or interocular suppression, in the periphery in anisometropic and strabismic amblyopia as compared with controls. Notably, those with strabismic amblyopia exhibited more significant peripheral binocular imbalance. These variations in binocularity across the visual field among different amblyopia subtypes may necessitate tailored approaches for dichoptic treatment. |
